It would be very hard to quantify, but has anyone as tall as Gillespie ever hit a test double ton? Or even a hundred for that matter.

I think it would if it was a close thing. For example, if McGrath was to return to the team now, Gillespie would be retained ahead of Stuart Clark, and his batting would have a part in that. The value of a tail as good as Warne, Lee and Gillespie for Australia is significant, after all.

It's a shame they will hardly play any first-class cricket before the Ashes gets under way.

I'm still quite amazed at his innings. It's just...amazing really. No words yet can describe what I think about it.

Perhaps 'melisant'. That will do. :laugh:

In Australia, it will only be a couple of games.

Gillespie, Warne and Kasprowicz all have full county cricket seasons. I don't think Lee, Clark or McGrath do. Clark usually plays for Middlesex but he opted out this season.

MacGill gets a second. Poor Cullen must be feeling left out, I wish Ponting would give him more of a bowl.
